Table 2. “Small” Vlacq tables published between 1651 and 1667.

It is remarkable that between 1651 and 1667 some of the "small" Vlacq
tables were printed by other printers, although Vlacq did have his own printing
shop during this period, see table 2 of those copies that still exist in libraries.

De Decker after 1628
After his involvements with logarithmic
tables De Decker moved to Rotterdam in ppy*
1629, where he became involved in hW
teaching sea navigation and in mediating Ji
maritime conflicts [21], He published in h
1631 a commerce-oriented book on
compound interest calculations [6b], and
in 1632 a handbook for navigation at sea
[6c]. Both these books he had printed by
his old printer, Pieter Rammaseyn in
Gouda. His second book, Practyck van de
groote zeevaert, lacked any reference to
the "Great Table" in either his own j
Nieuwe Teikonst, Part II, or in Vlacq's
Arithmetica Logarithmica, Part II; De s
Decker probably avoided the sensitive
issue by using the older "small" tables
from his Nieuwe Teikonst, Part I. Around I
1640 De Decker moved to The Hague
where he took on the profession of wine
gauger, until his death in 1647.
